Healthcare Applications

Healthcare associated infections (HAIs) account for 100,000s deaths per year in the United States alone; more than breast cancer, auto accidents and AIDS combined. Microban® can incorporate technologies that will kill disease causing pathogens such as MRSA, Ecoli, enterobacter aerogenese, pseudomonas aeruingosa, VRE, staphylococcus aureus, and many more into your medical products. Antimicrobial products for healthcare such as catheters, dressings, masks benefit by having built-in technology that will kill 99.9% of gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. These antimicrobial products will continue antibacterial action against these germs even after repeated contamination.

Initially engineered for use in the healthcare industry, Microban antimicrobial product technology is built-in during the manufacturing process to create cleaner healthcare environments. Antimicrobial products for healthcare such as masks, dressings, and catheters are just a few of the many products that can benefit from our built-in technology designed to kill pathogens. Because Microban technology never washes away or wears off, it provides healthcare professionals protection throughout the useful life of the products.
